I understand English but I can’t speak. Where do I start?

Take the 3-minute level test, then go to Practice → Speaking. Every lesson ends with a timed speaking challenge.

Yes. All lessons, quizzes, reading and resources are free, with no sign-up.

Is it for children or adults?

Both. Kids Level 1 and 2 use pictures and stories; Beginner, Intermediate and Advanced work for students, adults and professionals.

Charts › A / an / the / nothing

When to use each article — and when to use none.

🔤 A / an / the / nothingbrainywave.in

Use	When	Examples
a	any one, before a consonant sound	a book, a cat, a university (yoo-)
an	any one, before a vowel sound	an apple, an egg, an hour (silent h)
the	a specific one we both know; only one exists	the sun, the office, the book you gave me
— (nothing)	general plurals and uncountables; most countries, languages, meals	I like music. Children like sweets. She speaks Malayalam. We had lunch.
the + places	rivers, seas, mountain ranges, groups of islands	the Periyar, the Arabian Sea, the Himalayas, the Maldives

First time: ‘I saw a dog.’ Second time: ‘The dog was black.’

Jobs: ‘She is a nurse.’ not ‘She is nurse.’

💡 Malayalam has no articles, so this chart is worth putting on the wall.
